The Role of Pyrosequencing in Head and Neck Cancer Epigenetics
1 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate promoter methylation quantitation using recently described pyrosequencing techniques by correlation with messenger RNA (mRNA) expression. DESIGN: DNA was extracted from tissue samples and was subjected to bisulphite conversion. Quantitative methylation data for multiple CpG sites in each of 9 gene promoters were obtained for tumors using pyrosequencing. RNA was extracted and converted to...
